Georgia Institute of Technology gives its students an incredible, quality education. I love this place! First, the opportunities that the name "Georgia Tech" brings to its students are invaluable, and cannot be compared to any other institution. Many of my colleagues simply received interviews and offers solely because of the name on their resume. Its also important to mention how great the professors and staff are here, as well.
Further, the community is awesome. I have met and will continue to meet incredible minds. There are so many different people and groups here that everyone will find a place. The friends that I have made here I hold close to my heart.
Also, I want to mention its location. Atlanta is truly a beautiful city with many things to do after a long days of studying. There's the Coca-cola factory, Ponce City Market, and much more.

Online classes this year have been a much easier transition than I would have expected. My teachers worked very hard to transition into the online format and were very understanding about a wide variety of circumstances and hardships that students faced during the semester. Two of my teachers were some of the best lecturers I have ever had, going to class enabled me to never have to read the book again and still get an A because they were so skilled and passionate in the subjects they taught. Some of my other teachers had a tougher time with the online transition and managing to shift the curriculum into an effective online format. However, I learned new skills that way as well because I learned how to effectively teach myself material and handle adversity in my academia. Overall, my online semester was a great experience and would definitely recommend to incoming students! if anything, I think they should start to offer both in-person and remote classes permanently. Go Jackets!
So glad I decided to go to Georgia Tech. It is such an amazing school with great opportunities. I was worried about there being a competitive environment at such a prestigious school, but everyone here is very down to earth and very helpful. I have had kids who barely know me offer help with homework for hours or invite me to join a research program with them. The classes themselves are good, most of my teachers are amazing at what they do and I learned a lot because of them. There are people from all walks of life and I guarantee you that if you have any interest, no matter how obscure, you will find other people with those same interests. For example, my RA is in a juggling club! Lots of social events and Greek life if that is what you are looking for. There are so many opportunities outside of courses to pursue, the opportunities are endless. Combine that with being in one of the most vibrant cities in the world, and you have everything you need to become one helluva engineer!
